Commentary

What can someone cause to understand any individual more than that which
has been explained in the previous verses? After that, there is an extreme need
of meditation by reciting the Holy Qur’an
again and again, and summary of those advices should be placed in the heart;
which have been mentioned in it, so that the form of dressing the life is
produced, otherwise; there is nothing at the end save ruin and destruction.

Holy
Qur’an has been informing that
worldly life of the mankind is only of a few days, and it has been given to the
human being for the purpose that he should be ready for that real life which
will start after death. This world is a place of examination, in which; both
kinds of things (useful and harmful) have been spread duly mixed up, and the
mankind have been caused to know by means of the Messengers and Prophets (peace
be upon them); that they should never consider that; “this (worldly) life is
their real life”, and it should not be fixed as own aim. It is only a wonderful
sort of reflection of the real life, in which; those things appear attractive
before ordinary people; form of which is nothing but stir, restlessness, serpents,
scorpions and the Fire in the real Life. The person who will run behind the
things towards which; his sight attracts, to him; those things will be provided
in the same attractive artificial form, and if it would be possible, he will
reap advantage fully from them. But as soon as he will die, those things will
be changed in their original form; and he will see that it was mass of fire,
which does not have any quality save burning and giving pain.

The
person who obeyed the commands of Holy Qur’an,
comprehended the reality of those things and understood that attraction of
those things is a deception, he prevented himself from inclining unto them, and
he turned his attention to such things which are conspicuous here in the form
of restraint from wishes and abstinence, and those things will be apparent
there in the form of pleasure and ease, he passed the test and his real life
will be dressed.

One
more thing which is known from these verses, is that; abstinence, God-fearing
and prevention from desires etc. are however; good things. But their benefit
will appear in the life of Hereafter; only in such form; if these will be
adopted for acquiring pleasure of Allah Almighty purely. If it would be for any
other purpose beside the pleasure of Allah Almighty, then it will not be useful
in the Hereafter, where the standard of the success will be only that how much
a person performed good works for the sake of Allah Almighty. Which good works
would have been done for any other purpose, their retaliation and advantage
will be given only in this world according to one’s luck, and they will get
nothing in the Hereafter. Such people will be told: For which purpose you
became pious; that was fulfilled during your worldly life. Now; there is
nothing for you, however, in the form of your abstinence, which you adopted in
the world, here the Fire is. Therefore they will be thrown into the Fire.
